Sealing a patio

[ax222s]

Hi all,

I got a new patio laid 2 months ago. Indian sandstone.

There was a wheelbarrow left on it for 2 days, and it rained, and now the rust from the wheelbarrow has stained it! ARGH!

So I want to seal the patio to prevent further staining.

Is there any sealer thats particularly recommended? Ive got this in my local store: https://www.selcobw.com/sealocrete-all-in-one-sealer-5ltr . Its very cheap, but I know thats cheap does not necessarily mean good!

What the process? Jet wash the patio, then paint the sealer on?

Is it possible to remove the two rust marks that the wheelbarrow has left on the patio? (using sandpaper?)

Thanks

These are the rust marks. I know they dont look much, but they are in the most prominent position on the patio!

Im looking at a few stone sealers.
This one is £100 for 5l https://stonedoctors.co.uk/product/stontex-indian-sandstone-sealer-5l/ compared to this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sandstone-...-Azpects/dp/B01GVKZPL6/ref=asc_df_B01GVKZPL6/ which is half that! And yet they both seem to do the same thing?

Thanks

Jet wash should remove stains before sealing.
